Senator Stanford and his advocates,
says the Washington Star, present many
lawyers reasons why he should not be
compelled to explain the disbursement

higher in public estimation if he would
throw what light he could on the al
legged bribery and corruption, instead
Of en~deavoring to conceal himself as q
witness under cover of legal technical.
ties. One enthusiastic defender OF the
Senator, apparently under the impress
sion that the case requires him to sus-
tain that crooked policy of which the
last stage 10 silence, cites at great length
for the Senator's benefit a decision OF
the Supreme Court of the United States
which holds against amy forcible and
compulsory extortion Of q mans own
testimony 4 4 n 10 be used as evil
dence to convict him Of. q crime or to
forfeit his goods" This defense will
probably not be relished by the reluc.
tant witness in this case, inasmuch as he
has not refused to answer on the ground
that his replies would tend to criminste
him, but claims, on the contrary, that
he has never corrupted or attempted
to corrupt any member Of the Legisla-
ture or any member Of Congress, or any
public official" or authorized any agent

Rux Nevada Land.

Carson 10 having its own land boom In
a email way, says the Appeal. II is stated
that within the last week or two ell the
unapplied for land lying between Carson
and Ross ranch has been taken up. II
seems our people are beginning to realize
that Nevada will have a boom some day
and that land in almost any part OF the
State can be taken up with good prospects
of realizing q large profit on it al q not
very distant day. SO many people, how
ever, are lured to buy land in California
by the recent rapid raise in its value that
they, too. eagerly invest their money there.
The boom in that State is spasmodic, and
there is danger that the impetuous specu-
lstor may pay more for the land than he
will ever be able to sell ii for again. The
Appeal would advise its readers to buy
Nevada land. which will raise on it's own
value without the need Of syndicates to
boom 10.

Sophie could only curse her

Mastless Ships Of War.

The following from the London
Times, is OF much interest to peo
pie proposing to build a navy:
At the Royal United Service Insti-
tuition, Admiral Well presiding, Cap
tain Eitzgerald,R R. n, lectured on
mastlass ships of war. The lecturer
said that, though he was of the opin-
ion that it would be advisable to UNI
rig Immediately all our present iron
clads yet he considered that the car
rying out of the idea would be more
applicable to future designs for our
cruisers than to the unrigging OF our
present single-crew corvettes. He
maintained that there was no econ
onay in having masts and sails as
these wore out rapidly and did not
save Goals, as they stopped the ship
more in foul winds than they assisted
her in fair. He pressed that
our present rugged ironclads would
be more powerful fighting ma
chimes without their spars and rigging
than with them, leaving in their lower
machine-gun batteries. The principal
arguments for the abolition OF spars
and sails in men Of war, but more par
ticularly in iron-clads, were that the
weight of masts and sails caused in
creased immersion and occupied valu-
able space both on deck and below
space which might otherwise bedevot-
ed to warlika stores. They masked
more or less, the fire Of guns. There
was a probability Of wreckage from
them fouling the screw in action, and
lastly, though perhaps the strongest
argument of all, was in the fact that
the retention OF masts and sails in
men-of-war diverted SO much the at
tention, the energy and the resources
of both officers and men from the real
work of their profession, and fron the
study Of modern naval warfare, and
occupied them in drills and exer-
cises as obsolete for fighting purposes
as the bow and-arrow drill Of the Sax
ons."
